>Greetings costumers,

>The people of the Outlands take great pleasure in inviting one and all to
>our fifth Costume Collegium to be held April 6 & 7, 2002 in Trinidad,
>Colorado.

>Our guest speaker is Robin Netherton, known to many on these lists.
>Robin will present a detailed analysis of the fitted fashion of 14th
>century Western Europe, showing how it evolved from earlier unfitted
>fashions, the various versions and uses of the style, and how it formed the
>basis for the later development of the more structured fashions of the 15th
>and 16th centuries. She will also discuss the
>extant garments from the Herjolfsnes (Greenland) grave site, particularly
>the oft-cited "ten-gore" dress, with a discussion of how the Greenland
>finds might influence our understanding of 14th century European fashion.
>
>Marc Carlson from Tulsa OK, known in the SCA as Diarmaid O'Duinn,
>will present a history of shoemaking, and a short workshop on making the 3
>fingered glove seen in the Luttrell Psalter and other sources. >
>We are also pleased to have renowned SCA embroiderer Lady Rouge du
>Maurier from Caid (Las Vegas NV), who will present a 2 day workshop > on
>metal thread embroidery.
>
>There are many other teachers presenting a wide body of information on
>clothing within the SCA period, and we invite you to go to the web site
>(http://www.caerthe.org/ccv/) for more information.
